It's not very often it have been in to this kind of emergency program, but it's someting like limp home, max 3000 RPM and there is somting else, reduced power also. Not sure if I have 3rd gear and higher, when this happend. Use to stop very quick, and recycle.
Have seen limp home described with max 50 km/h and max 2500 RPM
This is a early W210 E220 CDI model before 6/99
Can this be the difference in max RPM in limp home mode?
Transmission is 722.6xx ( i think it is 722614)
I will have the fluid level scanned with MB scanner at 80C.
But infrared thermo it also ordered
After what you say, I start to suspect the ATF fluid.
Are MB producing to types?
Synthetic and non syntetic?
Is the one and only good ATF fluid for 722.6 MB part 001 989 21 03 10
The oil was bought long time ago for a 2000 model E 220 CDI
So it should be correct, but Im not sure.
How long have the MB syntetic ATF been on the marked?
